Determining an access network for an IMS session based on T-ADS information

1. A method performed by an application server, comprising:

receiving, from a subscriber server, terminating access domain selection (T-ADS) information for an Internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS) session of a wireless device, wherein the T-ADS information comprises:

a first wireless device Internet protocol (IP) address and a first network name of a first radio access technology (RAT) for the IMS session; and

a second wireless device IP address and a second network name of a second RAT;

determining an access network for the IMS session based on the T-ADS information, wherein the access network is one of the first RAT or the second RAT; and

sending, to the wireless device, an IMS message to set up the IMS session over the access network.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising sending, by the application server to the subscriber server, a request message indicating a first query for the T-ADS information for the IMS session.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the application server is a service centralization and continuity application server (SCC AS), and the application server performs IMS T-ADS functionality.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the subscriber server is at least one of:

a home subscriber server; and

a unified data management.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first network name is an access point name, and the second network name is a data network name.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the T-ADS information further comprises an information element indicating whether the first RAT supports an IMS voice over packet-switched session.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the T-ADS information further comprises an information element indicating whether the second RAT supports an IMS voice over packet-switched session.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining the access network comprises further comprises determining whether the first RAT supports an IMS voice over packet-switched session and/or whether the second RAT supports an IMS voice over packet-switched session.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving, via the subscriber server from a mobility management entity:

the first network name; and

the first wireless device IP address.

10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving, via the subscriber server from an access and mobility management entity:

the second network name; and

the second wireless device IP address.

11. An application server, comprising:

one or more processors; and

memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the application server to:

receive, from a subscriber server, terminating access domain selection (T-ADS) information for an Internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS) session of a wireless device, wherein the T-ADS information comprises:

a first wireless device Internet protocol (IP) address and a first network name of a first radio access technology (RAT) for the IMS session; and

a second wireless device IP address and a second network name of a second RAT;

determine an access network for the IMS session based on the T-ADS information, wherein the access network is one of the first RAT or the second RAT; and

send, to the wireless device, an IMS message to set up the IMS session over the access network.

12. The application server of claim 11 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the application server to send, to the subscriber server, a request message indicating a first query for the T-ADS information for the IMS session.

13. The application server of claim 11 , wherein the application server is a service centralization and continuity application server (SCC AS), and the application server performs IMS T-ADS functionality.

14. The application server of claim 11 , wherein the subscriber server is at least one of:

a home subscriber server; and

a unified data management.

15. The application server of claim 11 , wherein the first network name is an access point name, and the second network name is a data network name.

16. The application server of claim 11 , wherein the T-ADS information further comprises an information element indicating whether the first RAT supports an IMS voice over packet-switched session.

17. The application server of claim 11 , wherein the T-ADS information further comprises an information element indicating whether the second RAT supports an IMS voice over packet-switched session.

18. The application server of claim 11 , wherein the determination of the access network comprises determining whether the first RAT supports an IMS voice over packet-switched session and/or whether the second RAT supports an IMS voice over packet-switched session.

19. The application server of claim 11 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the application server to receive, via the subscriber server from a mobility management entity:

the first network name; and

the first wireless device IP address.

20. A system comprising:

a subscriber server, comprising:

one or more first processors; and

first memory storing first instructions that, when executed by the one or more first processors, cause the subscriber server to:

send terminating access domain selection (T-ADS) information for an Internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS) session of a wireless device, wherein the T-ADS information comprises:

a first wireless device Internet protocol (IP) address and a first network name of a first radio access technology (RAT) for the IMS session; and

a second wireless device IP address and a second network name of a second RAT; and

an application server, comprising:

one or more second processors; and

second memory storing second instructions that, when executed by the one or more second processors, cause the application server to:

receive the T-ADS information;

determine an access network for the IMS session based on the T-ADS information, wherein the access network is one of the first RAT or the second RAT; and

send, to the wireless device, an IMS message to set up the IMS session over the access network.
